Contemporary romance author writing book-club-ready stories about family, friendship, and fresh starts. Now publishing with Signal House Press. πΈπ
Research rabbit hole tonight: small family vineyard debt restructuring timelines. Not sexy on paper, VERY sexy in a competence-as-romance plot. #amwriting#contemporaryromance#vineyardromance
If you're in Virginia, please love on your local indie bookstore this month. They hand-sell debuts like mine with so much care, and it matters. #indieauthor#virginia#romancebooks
THE HARVEST PROMISE is out today. My debut is officially in the world. Thank you for every preorder, message, and bit of kindness. If you read today, please tell me your favorite scene π #bookrelease#debutauthor#romancebooks
Tomorrow is launch day and I am equal parts grateful, terrified, and trying to act normal. I cannot believe this is real. Thank you for being here for my first one π₯² #debutauthor#bookrelease
There is a found journal from Eleanor Sutton in this book and writing those entries broke me a little. Arthur carrying that history into harvest season still gets me. #romancebooks#bookrelease#virginiawriter
Nate Sheridan came from Oregon's Willamette Valley and communicates mostly through careful winemaking decisions, not speeches. Competence is romantic, sorry I don't make the rules. #contemporaryromance#vineyardromance
Character roll call: Lily Sutton can run a vineyard budget, fix a pump line, and still overthink one text for 2 days. I love her deeply. #romancenovel#smalltownromance#writerslife
Okay launch week nerves are real. 5 days until The Harvest Promise and I keep staring at the cover like it belongs to someone else. Preorder is open if you want in early π #bookpreorder#bookrelease#debutauthor
Debut authors who have done launch week before: does your brain also bounce between "this is amazing" and "am I ready" every 20 minutes? Asking for me π #debutauthor#writingcommunity
Weekend reading stack includes Signal House Press labelmates Natalie St. Claire and S.J. Archer, and honestly I keep learning from both of them. Small press shelves are underrated. #smallpress#romancebooks#indieauthor
Spent three hours tonight mapping a night harvest scene in a thunderstorm so the crush pad logistics actually made sense. Rain, forklifts, fruit bins, panic, chemistry. #amwriting#vineyardromance#writerslife
Two weeks until The Harvest Promise. I cannot believe this is real. If you've been meaning to preorder, this is your gentle nudge from a very grateful debut author π #bookpreorder#debutauthor#romancenovel
Romance readers: give me your favorite books where people fall in love through shared work. Farms, kitchens, vineyards, workshops, all of it. Competence-as-romance is my forever trope. #romancebooks#contemporaryromance
Real talk: I rewrote chapter 11 tonight for the fourth time because my main character kept choosing tenderness where I wrote anger. Maybe that's the real beat. #amwriting#writerslife
Virginia morning fog through vineyard rows is my entire personality right now. Draft coffee, damp boots, and one stubborn chapter. #virginiawriter#writerslife
ARCs for The Harvest Promise are heading out soon! Seeing early readers step into Lily's vineyard world is surreal in the best way. If you requested one, thank you for taking a chance on me π #debutauthor#smallpress
Okay I know I'm going to sound like a nerd about this but I spent tonight on Viognier vs Petit Verdot harvest timing and now my notes are 4 pages long. Worth it. #amwriting#vineyardromance
Cover reveal day for THE HARVEST PROMISE π₯² This story started as a tiny idea about vines, debt, and second chances, and now it has a real cover AND a real preorder link. Out May 19. #bookpreorder#romancebooks#smallpress
